Groove – Friday’s Clubbing Movie Flashback

January 15 2009

In the tradition MoS began last Friday, every Friday is now going to feature a clubbing-related movie to get you ready for the weekend.

This week, MoS flashes back to Groove, harking all the way back to the year 2000. Featured at Sundance, Groove followed the story of an underground rave party, weaving in several subplots including (spoiler alert!): an unwilling clubbing noob with negative preconceptions about the dance scene; someone who takes too much GHB and eats a banana; an engaged couple who have a fight after he kisses another guy but then they make up; someone who talks about 5htp too much; and a convincing portrayal of a DJ by Digweed. The OST is actually quite classic if you can get your hands on it. The movie not so much, but here's the trailer anyway.

Opened in 1991, Ministry of Sound was one of the key locations in the development of house music and super-clubs in Britain in the early 90s.
